The Pythagorean Theorem
In a right triangle, the sum of the legs squared equals the hypotenuse squared.
a2 + b2 = c2, where a and b are legs and c is the hypotenuse.

Pythagorean Triples
Pythagorean TripleWhen the sides of a right triangle are all
integers it is called a Pythagorean triple.
3,4,5 make up a Pythagorean triple since 32 + 42 = 52.

Classifying Triangles
Let c be the biggest side of a triangle, and a and b be the other two side.
If c2 = a2 + b2, then the triangle is right. If c2 < a2 + b2, then the triangle is acute. If c2 > a2 + b2, then the triangle is obtuse.
*** If a + b is not greater than c, a triangle cannot be formed.
